Thanks Derek for updating the new technical regulation. I'll start applying it. It is always a pleasure to watch your videos!
Hey Gas, thanks mate and thanks for tuning in and sharing the good vibes 😎
I love the info! Thank you for another amazing video. Going to share this one on our Thailand Rotax group chat!
yeah man, thanks heaps for tuning in. thanks for sharing!
Just saw your van driving so I subscribed!
boom, thanks legend !!!
Hi Derek, greets from Germany. Love your videos.
Another informative vid 👍👍thanks
cheers legend
Wao! I didn't know that they sell float height checking tool.
Yeah, check it out. Thanks for tuning in Yo !
When you are mentioning Jet sizes. Are you going by Jet stamping number or are you pinning the jets?
Also, pinned jets are you adding 6 to the number so a jet Pinned as a 126 is actually a 120?
Pinned numbers are correct size over stamped.
Haven't seen any announcement from KA about any rule changes to Rotax? Shouldn't this be emailed to members rather than finding out by chance in your videos? Thanks for keeping us updated!
Hey Bonac, you are very welcome and Thanks for tuning in. It was announced at the first round of the Rotax Pro Tour in Warwick.
Why did they make this rule then? Also, in karting, is there ever a case where you don't want to run as rich as the regulations allow?
yeah mostly for the mini and micro max. that is why they bought it in I believe. I think so it is in line with the world Rotax rules
PS thanks for tuning in and sharing the videos
In our club, leaner is faster...... is that wrong?
My friend accidentally bent the little tab so it fowled on the side of the carb so the fuel supply never shut off then wondered why he was pumping fuel out the breather.
When carb was apart the shut off worked fine but only once the bowl was fitted did it stop working. 😄🤣
Yeah, we have all made a few mistakes along the way. The ol’ ‘upside down floats’ is a good one ☝️
En general eso hace que pueda ir más fino, correr más o es meramente reglamento.
Qué mejoras tiene? Gracias
Olá, Bom fim de semana 😊
thanks for tuning in, you too!
Hi Derek! When it’s hotter weather, do you run the float leaner as a rule?
Hi Derek! I have a DD2 Max (non Evo) with QD carb. Do you know what is the std o regulated float height?
sure do bro. start at 23.5mm and you should be good to go!! thanks heaps for tuning in and sharing the video😊
I have a senior non Evo are the float levels the same some clarification would be greatly appreciated.
hey Phil, yeah set your senior max at 23.5mm-24.00mm and send it!
@@PowerRepublic Legend thanks heaps mate !!
Hi Derek I’ve recently bought a Rotax evo and it’s bogging coming out of corners. I’m running same gearing as my pre evo on the same track. Spark plug is ok and the jet size is correct. Some gearbox transmission fluid seems to leak around the fill plug. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hey Nathan. Can you check the float level in the carb for me?
@@PowerRepublic it was about 4mm but I’ve changed it to 3mm now. I’m not sure this will make that much a difference. Thanks for the reply!
@@nathanfrost1930 yeah that should help. you might have to go leaner on the main jet to compensate for the higher float level.
한국어 자막이 필요합니다
are the heights same for every class, mini, junior, senior?
they are now here in Aus
@@PowerRepublic all in the range of the Rotax gauge, or some on the edge of it?
@@bernardplanko6780 junior and senior at the richer end, mini and micro at the lean end as a general rule of thumb
Seems like pointless beurocrocy to me. I cannot think of any reason what so ever for that rule. Im not worried though, i have a prd fireball and an x30 snr iame..
I pretty sure it was a safety measure introduced from Rotax so that the engines wouldn't get leaned out so far that they get damaged.
Why not just make 1 video for the carb. Your videos are all over the place
thanks for watching
why not put subtitles in French ??
I'm not sure how to do that, but it would be cool if we could?
